River getaway

This is a charming little home on the river. It is clean and well stocked. The host is super nice and helpful. If you stay during the winter, bring slippers as the floor gets cold. I was told about this in advance and was prepared.

Family Time!

We stayed at J's Place while visiting family in the Grand Rapids area. From the moment we met Mary Alice, we felt welcome and cared for. She is such a thoughtful host and this can be seen in the house and amenities. The house was spotless and bright and comfortable. We spent mornings and evenings relaxing by the river and enjoying the peace and quiet. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Alice

Born and raised Michigander, and have lived in Grand Rapids for 30 years.

Why they chose this property

Oh my, where to begin? I knew the previous owner very well. His name was Red and he lived on this street for more than 50 years. I brought him Sunday dinner every week and we were good friends. After he passed away, the family agreed to sell me the home.

Little did I know what was in store for me!

We had it renovated in 2012 in order for it be move in ready. Almost immediately after the renovations were finished, we experienced the worst flood in 100 years. The entire house needed to be rebuilt from the inside out.

It was then that I realized I wanted to make this into a wonderful home for travelers and vacationers. Two years later we've created a custom home for travelers to enjoy this wonderful spot on the Grand River.

What makes this property unique

Location! This house has it's own piece of the river. It's absolutely perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. At night you can sit outside and stare up at the stars, and during the day you can feel the refreshing breeze off the water.
